We use & strongly recommend the use of timber blocks over anything else when treating lameness.
We have tried countless block applications, and we have found that while Rubber & Plastic blocks are useful in some situations, the timber blocks are the most cost effective. This is because there is no time required by the customer trying to remove them, or cost for calling us back to do this. Most of the time timber blocks will last up to 4 weeks on the hoof, and will wear themselves down to nothing.
